Gwyneth Paltrow's Highs and Lows

On Dec. 19, 1996, Brad proposed while Gwyneth was visiting him in Argentina on the set of his film "Seven Years in Tibet." The actress accepted, and later that month, Gwyneth met Brad's parents over the Christmas holiday. They celebrated the upcoming union with a family dinner at the local Red Lobster -- and then they even got matching haircuts. But just seven months later, on June 16, 1997, in a surprise turn of events, Brad's publicist released a statement saying the couple had split.
